Dear
Friend,
If you do not already have a habit of gathering daily manna the first thing in the morning (we can look at the example given to us in Exodus 16 and find the pattern for make it a habit. Establish your life and your schedule to allow you the necessary time to do your daily collection first thing every morning to give you the strength to make it through the day. And remember that today’s manna will not be sufficient for tomorrow; tomorrow’s manna must be collected tomorrow morning. Saturday, May 14, 2022
Today's Passage : Today's Passage :The Creation of the World [3] - Animals Bible Verse:Genesis 1:20-25 "And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.” So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day. And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds — livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that creeps on the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. " Message:
Never let an evolutionist tell you that God does not exist, that He did not plan for earth’s creatures to be made and then execute His plan. Scientists don’t know everything, and more to the point, science does not have anything intelligent to say about God.
But we must always keep in mind that the Bible does not tell us things that we can find out by ourselves. Nowhere in the Bible does it tell us that 1 + 1 = 2. But we understand it is true. It simply is not important to our understanding of God and our relationship to Him.
There is no reason for any tension or disagreement between science and religion. And once you have accepted, by faith, that God gave us His holy word for us to learn and follow, so that we might be saved from sin, there is no reason to be defensive, simply because science teaches us things that the Bible does not.
Any time there seems to be a disagreement between the Bible and science, there is a reason for it. Our meager minds may struggle to find it, but we must always remember: the Bible is not a scientific treatise; and a physics textbook is not a religious treatise. Christians who try to take their science from the Bible, and scientists who try to take their knowledge of God from equations, will be equally disappointed at the result.
Genesis tells us that on the first day, God separated the light from the darkness. By “day”, does it mean a 24-hour period of the earth’s revolution? It can’t; the earth didn’t exist. (And see 2 Peter 3:8: “A day is like a thousand years to the Lord.”)
The Bible tells us that God made man by breathing on the dust. This drives an evolutionist nuts, because he can “prove” that human beings are descendants of lower primates. But so what? An architect will show you a model and tell you that he built a great building in its image. But in fact, construction took a long time, and involved (among many other things) pouring concrete into wooden forms that were then removed. Will the concrete subcontractor accuse the architect of lying?
No, because they are talking about different things. God made man by putting spirit into matter, that is, by “breathing on the dust.” Genesis tells us who and why. The reason the Bible omits intermediate details is because they are utterly unimportant in a book about God and the human soul.
Meditation : Prayer : I bind myself to you this day, oh Christ, in your truth and in your sacrifice. I give to you my anxiety and my fear, my depression and my doubt, for you have promised to take them if we only ask; and I take upon myself your burden, for it is light and your way is gentle. May I keep this in my heart and mind all this day........Amen |
